Hi Justine,
In my view, the Small Team proposal can be seen as a “TDRP Light” process that makes it possible for the registrant to have a transfer investigated without entering the full process as set in TDRP with panelists and costs.
Making it a policy will require the registrars to investigate and decide on the “transfer light dispute”.
I hope this make sense.

Hi Steinar,
I guess I misunderstood your original email. I now see that the task is to "codify the informal process" but that the question really is whether this "codification" should be made mandatory (i.e. policy) or remain as voluntary (i.e. guidelines). And your recommendation is for it be made mandatory.
Reverting to my 2nd question (with modification), if as you say, the volume of transfer disputes handled is low and the number of cases ending in TDRP are very low, then what factors could/should we consider in deciding whether to support your recommendation?
Thanks, Justine

Hi Justine,
Examples for «tuning» into policy text is alter from “may” to MUST if the step is required:
3. The LRr should provide reason(s) for the transfer reversal, provide supporting information and data, and identify if it is an emergency situation requiring immediate attention.
To
3. The Losing Registrar *MUST* provide reason(s) for the transfer reversal, provide supporting information and data, and identify if it is an emergency situation requiring immediate attention.
The task to codify the informal process was given to the Small Team to make a guideline since the registrars process this differently. Please note that the volume if transfer disputes handled in this informal phase, is low. The number of cases ending in a TDRP is also very low.
I hope this answers your questions.

Hello Steinar,
Thanks for this. If I may:
1. Could you elaborate on what you mean by "*...hence tune the wording in to more “policy text”*"? As in to codify the informal process by way of a policy recommendation?
2. Are there reason(s) which support the non-codification of this informal process through policy?
Kind regards, Justine

Dear all,
The majority of all transfer disputes are settled in a friendly way by the involved registrars. The GNSO-TPR created a Small Team with the task to codify the informal process when there is a dispute of a (inter-registrar) transfer (but a TDRP was not started).
At the GNSO-TPR call on May 2, 2023, the chair asked all to get feedback from their stakeholders on whether the Small Team proposal should be “policy” or not. The deadline for feedback was set to Monday May 8, 2023
I have copied the Small Team proposal to a “At-Large” version <https://docs.google.com/document/d/16eXaNTW8pZXQSqZ7ksj-oMc1VPhYAyawNcfDT2CE...> and kindly ask for our view whether this should be “policy” or not.
My recommendation is to implement the proposal into the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy, hence tune the wording in to more “policy text”.
Please make your comment to https://docs.google.com/document/d/16eXaNTW8pZXQSqZ7ksj-oMc1VPhYAyawNcfDT2CE... and indicate if you are in favor of making this a policy or not.
Regards,
Steinar Grøtterød
